Canstruction Kicks Off This Week!
Now in its fourth year at Bayside, the "Canstruction" canned food drive will take place November 1–13 ! The STEAM and Future Studies classes will build to-scale models out of cans that are donated by our Bayside community as a project for their lessons. This year's theme is "Space Exploration." After the project is completed, all of the donated items will be given to Ecumenical Ministries .

HOW YOU CAN HELP: Send items to school with your child. The more cans we collect, the more people we can help. Containers to drop off the cans will be located outside classrooms, and prizes will be given to the class in each division that donates the most items.

CRITICAL NEED AND ESSENTIAL ITEMS: canned meats, cereal, jelly, meal in a box, pasta sauce, pork and beans, powdered milk, coffee and tea, paper towels, toilet paper, dish detergent, diapers, baby wipes, bath soap, toiletries, toothpaste, toothbrushes, first aid items
